Women's Nike Dunks

Why Choose the Women's Nike Dunks?

Women's Nike Dunks bring the Dunk Low to women's sizes as an everyday lifestyle sneaker, with versions that include the standard model, the SE "Gloss," the LX and the Suede. For more of the brand in women's sizes, see women's Nike sneakers.

• Everyday wear: The Dunk Low pairs a lightweight foam midsole with a rubber outsole.
• Standard Dunk Low: A leather or synthetic leather upper, depending on the colorway. Choose it for a plain upper that Nike says softens and picks up a vintage character with wear.
• SE "Gloss": Real and synthetic leather with a glossy finish. Choose it for a shinier upper.
• LX: Nike calls it a Y2K-inspired take on the classic Dunk, with real leather and metallic overlays. Choose it for the metallic detail.
• Suede: A suede upper. Choose it for a soft, napped finish.

How to Pick the Right Pair of Nike Dunks for Women

If the black-and-white look is the draw, the women's Panda Dunk styles narrow it down, and women's Nike Air Force 1 styles offer another classic Nike shape.

• Fit: Nike recommends a half size down on several women's Dunk Low pairs.
• Lacing: Nike suggests a traditional lacing style for the classic snug, laced-up look, or lacing a little looser when you want to slip the pair on and go.
• Heel and ankle: Try the pair on and check that your heel stays secure while you walk, without rubbing or slipping, and that the padded collar sits comfortably around your ankle.

What Are the Women's Nike Dunk Sneakers Tech Specs?

Lightweight Foam Under the Women's Nike Dunk Low

Women's Dunk Low pairs list a foam midsole, which Nike describes as lightweight cushioning and, on some versions, as lightweight and responsive.

Upper Materials on the Women's Nike Dunk Low, SE and LX

The versions differ mainly in the finish of the upper, from smooth leather to a glossy coat, metallic overlays or napped suede.

Rubber Outsole With Pivot Circle on Women's Nike Dunk Sneakers

Underneath, a rubber outsole carries the classic pivot circle, which Nike credits with durable traction and heritage style.

Padded Collar and Perforated Toe on Women's Dunk Lows

Several women's versions, including the standard Dunk Low and the SE "Gloss," list a padded, low-cut collar, which Nike says adds a sleek look. The synthetic leather pairs add a perforated toe box and the SE "Gloss" has perforations on the toe.

What Colorways Do the Women's Nike Dunks Come In?

Soft looks set sail or white against peony, particle rose or light British tan accents. Pink Blast/Black and the "Game Day" pair in Court Purple and University Gold go bolder, with two-tone blocking that Nike traces to the university colors released in 1985. Metallic silver shows up on the SE "Gloss," the LX and the Metallic Silver/White pair. The Dunk Low Suede comes in warm Light British Tan and in Old Royal blue, and the White/Black pair is the look shoppers call the "Panda."
